Is There Clearance to Use Andersen Ultimate Adapter in Bed of 2018 Ram 2500 Short Bed

Question:

2018 Ram 2500 with a 6.5 bed and puck system with Cedar Creed 33IK. Will this work with the short bed if I either use the Demco rail adapter for the puck system? Another option I have seen is the Anderson that attaches to a 2 and 5/16 ball in the bed. Not sure which would be best option and if in fact it will work with the 6.5 bed. Need your infinite wisdom. Thanks,

The Andersen Ultimate Connection adapter part # AM3200 has 9 inches of offset built into it and since your short bed 2018 Ram 2500 is a bit longer than most short beds at 6.5 feet (most are 6 foot) this solution would work well.

To install this you could use the Demco rail adapter part # DM6099 that you referenced as well and you'd be set.
